Hi Tim
My old ZRX12, oooh that brings back fond memories. I loved that bike

.
We probly have met at the Kwak centre as I used to practically live there (nothing better to do) though not so much now.
My mates name is Gerry - big tall fella, he now rides a KTM 990SM.
Yes he was gonna get an HP2S but the deal fell through due to a disagreement over the part ex deal. He's ordered the KTM RC8R now.
So you ride a beemer now as well then.
Hay, if you’re ever around Bristol on a Saturday lunchtime, I’m usually in Fowlers having a brew between 1230 – 2pm.
Cheers
Brian

By the way Bri - I reckon your HP2S is about as good as it gets quite honestly...if I could afford £15k for a toy I'd have one too. I reckon all those knockers on the GS site are a bit green (with envy), although I'm pretty sure its water off a ducks back with you. You know you've got the best bike you've ever had and it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. I think it looks the bees knees am I'm sure from what you've said it rides as good as it looks, and I'm as jealous as anyone, but I'm genuinely chuffed for you. I'd sooner have the first HP2S on british soil that one of a handful of Desmowhatsits anyday!
I know the queue is growing...but please let me know when (if) you decide to get rid of it!
Thats ZX10 looked pretty awesome too!

You are right mate. The knockers don’t bother me one bit, its just a shame they cant experience one for themselves really, then make comment.
Sorry mate – no plans to sell her yet.
Here are a couple more shots of my two ZX-10R’s in action for you.
My 2004 ZX at Cadwell
My 2006 ZX at Castle Coombe

Good to see you again today too Tim. I hope you had as much fun on your ride as I did on mine.
We did 185 miles on some quite challenging roads around the Brecon Beacons (god its beautiful up there).
Aber
After 185 miles of salty welsh roads

(roll on summer).
we’ll have to get together for a ride when you get your 1100 boxer back.

NO worries mate
I would like very much to get a HP2 one day, so I'd better keep the plate. What plate are you getting?
I seriously thought about getting a HP2 myself but when I realised it would mean selling the Thunderace, the GSA and my Anniversary Blackbird I had to reconsider lol. My 1200s is my favourite bike of all time already and Im sure the HP2 feels briliant.
Best of luck with it

Thunderace is going and I'll shortly be selling the Blackbird.
Finally very settled with the 1200s and the GSA.
